WE HAVE BABIES!!!!
I got hom from work to a tiny sqeaking from the cage... She got off the nest to allow me to count (and so she could go potty) and I counted 10. We just got home from Chuy's and she wanted to come out and be held, there are 11 (she was licking me while I did the recount). I took her out for a bit to be held and petted and then I placed her back in the cage... She is now nursing and cleaning her babies. Considering how small she looks, the babies are pretty good sized. I love the sounds coming from the cage. Nickolas is in total awe. He was with me when we found out she had them. He is being good and trying not to bug her, but she wanted him so I finally got him to realize it was ok for him to hold her. I called David (he is at Lake Isabella for a fishing derby) he was still trying to say she was just fat. I told him we had babies.
Mommy and babies all seem to be doing well.
